    I can't run no more
    With that lawless crowd
    While the killers in high places
    Say their prayers out loud
    But they've summoned, they've summoned up
    A thundercloud
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

    This is like being 2.5 games out of the wild card in baseball but with 4 teams to pass.

    Or I guess its just like football now.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

        its gonna be tough to win the next two weeks even with a fully healthy a-rod

        and it pretty much looks like we have to win out and get a lot of help

          The thing is, if you would have told me we had any chance at the playoffs after losing Rodgers for 8 weeks, I would have said you were crazy.

            Beat Carolina, Minnesota, and Detroit.
            Carolina loses at Atlanta. (Or Atlanta loses to Carolina and at New Orleans.)
            Seattle loses to LA Rams or at Dallas (with Elliott back). (Or LA Rams lose at Seattle and at Tennessee.)

            Sounds easy enough.

            Could this be like 2010 with a late push to the playoffs? Unlikely, but there's a chance.

              Sorry, ain't gonna happen. Been here many times over the years, and whenever u have to rely on help from other teams, u can kiss the season goodbye.

                Awwwww....Don't spoil the youngsters' fun. It's like telling 'em that Santa Clause isn't real.
                One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

                      I think Santa Claus came to town several times in that last Super Bowl season.

                      What Harvey said above is very much a possibility. The toughest hurdle could be knocking off Carolina at their place, even with Rodgers.
                      What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

                        I'm expecting the Pack to get blown out in Carolina. I think Arod will be running for his life if he plays. If we pull off a miracle and win there, I'll become a believer. I really thought last year was gonna be our repeat of 2010. Santa dropped off a lump of coal. LOL

                            I expect the Vikings to lose out and we win the division.
                            Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

                              how good are our chances of making the playoffs?

                              math nerds teamed up and have said we have a 95% chance of NOT making the playoffs.

                              even with rodgers returning

                              and that might be a huge improvement, last week the odds of us making it were 750-1
